Please help! I think I'm at a stall. I was sleeved almost 5weeks ago on September 30th. I'm a lil bummed. :-(

dont worry its natural to stall it gives your body time to adjust to what is going on. I think to get out of it try doing something different with your calorie intake and or exercise, to trick your body into losing again. Good luck

Question: I got my time of the month 4 days after surgery. It wasn't due for at least 2 weeks. Is that normal? Has anyone else experienced that?

While I no longer get a period myself, I know someone who hadn't gotten one for a long time and then all of a sudden after surgery they started again and were irregular. They were told that it's from the change in your hormones and your body due to the surgery. Eventually your body will find its balance again.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
